Court orders Governor Waititu to process Tatu City plansKiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu (PHOTO: FILE)The Environment and Land court in Thika on Monday ordered Kiambu County Government to process building approvals submitted by Tatu City within 30 days.Justice Lucy Gacheru issued the orders following an application by Tatu City on March 12, in which the company accused the county government of refusing to approve their building plans. In papers filed in court, Tatu City and Kofinaf Ltd accused Governor Ferdinand Waititu of blackmail after the developer refused to surrender free land he was requesting for. Tatu City is a 5,000-acre mixed-use development area with homes, schools, offices, a shopping district, medical clinics nature areas, a sports entertainment complex and industrial park that will host factories. That is what we are telling Tatu City to do. Approval of building plans will be hinged on the compliance with the law,” said Waititu.
